Hi. I have not but my sister did when her DLA was stopped when she had to reapply for PIP and didnt get it. It was a good price, about 18 months old and less than if she had got a comparable one from a garage. Hope that helps.

Maybe speak to Motorbility and ask them for an average price. I believe the price is pretty good.

I purchased mine last year, for my brother. the price below that charged by garages, plus I got £250 back for it being in good condition.

The only downside is that it has its mot, but not a full service before end of contract. You have to pay money in full 6 weeks before end of contract. Hope that helps

If it is a low mileage you may be able to lease for further 2 years. If you buy the car you will have to cover all expenses, mot.etc.
